How do I split a vector in two using 6x ?

 

I grabbed a vector at random ( drawn in black ) , I drew a curve ( in red ) and I want to split the vector in two using the curved line.

 

See attached files.

 

Thanks,

I think "Back minus Front" should work on this.

 

You have to convert the line to an object  (Edit: add some width to line first)

 

Select both 

 

Arrange>Shaping>Back minus Front

 

Then break object apart.

Thanks, that didn't seem to work... so I tried front -back It left the line in segments. I wonder if i a setting incorrect.

Check that - I forgot to add a width to the line. Worked like a charm once I did that.

Plus, there are several pieces to the flames graphic...

sometimes Corel can be fussy doing all pieces at one time....

other times not!

:huh:

 

Glad it worked for you!

I noticed that about Coreldraw. This isn't the graphic that I wanted to split but I figured if I could get it to work on this one others should be a breeze. It's funny how sometimes the answer can be right in front of your nose.
